How much is too much?

I agree with what everyone has said so far. Personally, revealing irrelevant details seems rather unnecessary to me if said details have no effect on the future.

It’s interesting that most of the responses seem to be leaning towards not disclosing details from the past. A couple of months back, in one of PCG’s “What if…/Would you…” threads, she or someone else asked whether or not people would want to know if a potential prospect engaged in any “bad” behaviour while at uni or something to that effect. The overwhelming response from people was that they would want to know. Quite a few ladies said something to the effect of “oh, if he was engaged in haram things before I would want to know” or “I would want to know because past behaviour says alot about a person.” Just out of curiosity, doesn’t that apply here as well?

I too would really like to know who has and hasn’t been consistent with their responses. I have a feeling the people wanting to share their past are the same posters advocating wanting to know the past of their potential rishtas. Then again I wouldn’t be surprised if it turned out to be the opposite since hypocrisy and double standards are totally standard on GS.
